I've always been fascinated with old buildings, but I never thought much about it. I enjoy studying history and learning about the past, so I think this connection with buildings just comes naturally. As a small child I remember looking at a picture in the newspaper of my father's home town of an old antebellum house that had been cut into two parts be moved. I remember staring at the picture for a long time. The next time we visited my grandparents I instisted that we go to see the house after it had been put together (I was probably 7 or 8 years old). This was the beginning.
So now, I am opening the door into the past. This blog will be a place to explore and learn about the old buildings and properties that are part of our modern communities. Behind the door of every old building there's a story waiting to be revealed....
